Single Copy 10 Cents. TO THE EDITOR . . . To The Editor: Here Is a little story that might be of interest to the peo ple of Heppner. It was told to me by my good friend, the late Harry Duval, of Heppner, late in the fall of 1953: "In the. fall of 1925, the famous motion pictures and western ro deo star, hoot Gibson, came to the Pendleton Round-up and, competing with the world's champions, won the champion ship In riding wild western hors es. For this he won the beauti ful cowboy saddle made and presented by the great and world famous saddle shop of Pendle ton, Oregon. After the round up that year, Hoot came to the Ben Swaggart ranch In Blackhorse canyon, near Heppner, beyond the Swag gart Buttes. He brought along with him several expert horse trainers. A great many years be fore, Mr Swaggart came into pos session of a great buckskin stal lion. He then went to the Cayuse Indians, on the Umatilla Indian reservation and purchased sev eral of their beautiful buckskin mares. These he bred to the great stallion and after many years originated the famous Swaggart Cremlllne horses. They were large intelligent horses, and no others like them on earth. Hoot saw some of these great horses at the Pendleton Round up and determined to own some of them if Mr Swaggart could be pursuaded to sell a few of them. Hoot bought five of the finest three year old fillies and he and his trainers spent sever al months at the Swaggart ranch training and genteling them. Hoot paid the sum of $750 each for these fillies. At this time, Mr Swaggart had a fine Cremellne stallion he cal led Candy. Candy was the fav orite of all Mr Swaggart's hors es and he loved him more than any other horse on the ranch. Hoot foil in love with this great stallion, Candy, and several weeks after he left the ranch, wrote to Mr Swaggart offering From The County Agent's Office By N. C. Anderson From work done this year and past years the new sestemic treatment for grub control will be a recommended practice. Sev eral companies are manufactur ing the chemical used, ET-57, under various trade names. It will be available as a liquid for use in a dose syringe and in large pills or boluses. The ma terial circulates with the body fluids of a treated animal and destroys the grubs that have burrowed into the flesh. There are a few precautions suggested for the use of these new chemi cals which include no treatments to be made later than 60 days before slaughter of the animals, no use on milk cows to avoid residues of the pesticide in the milk, use strictly according to re commended dosages on the pa ckage label. It is recommended that the compound be admini stered to cattle after the adult-heel-fly season ends but before the grubs show In the backs of cattle. Here that will mean that treatments can be made from September through December. We are hopeful that there will be a number of Morrow county livestock men use this new ma terial as a means of controlling grubs before the damage is done. Homemakers of Morrow county who have made plans to attend the Rose Festival and have not yet left for Portland when this item appears may be interested in a part of the program there. The Indiana Home Extension chorus of about 500 voices will sing at the evening program of the Rose Festival on June 12, 13, and 14. They will arrive the morning of June 12 by special train and will be housed at Lew is and Clark college and Port land University. Extension wo men from Clakamas, Multno mah, Washington, Columbia, Clatsop and Tillamook counties will be their hostesses. This Indianna Home Economics Ex tension chorus is well known in the Middle Viest. It is directed by Al Stewart, director of music at Purdue University. The wo men in the chorus are a part of our cooperative extension ser vice in agriculture and economics. From time to time we have Inquiries at this office for In formation on market and crop reports.

Henry Rauch, of Lexington, who was a visitor in the city on Friday, reports some very good grain in his vicinity. Mr and Mrs O B Flory are leaving this week for Yakima, Washington where Mr Flory will enter the employ of the Yakima Hardware company. For the past year and a half Mr Flory has been in charge of the local sta tion of the Standard Oil company. fer, and said "I practically gave him the other horses and now he wants me to give him Candy, too. To Hell with him." A few weeks 1 later Candy scratched himself on a barbed wire fence and this turned into blood poison and Candy was soon dead. I was working for Mr Swaggart at that time, and helped remove the beautiful hide from the animal. Mr Swaggart kept the hide as long as he lived. I do not know if the Swaggart family kept the hide of Candy or not."

For those who were not re minded last year of the new changes in wheat grades it might be timely to call the change to their attention now. This is especially true in light of the severe infestation of rye and barley and mixtures of var ieties in wheat fields this year. Principle amount of the chang es that were made last year in wheat grades is the reduction in the percentage of foreign allow ed. The reduction from 1 to in the number one grade and from 2 to 1 in the num ber two grade will be of partic ular importance where volunteer rye is a problem. Rogulng rye from the field is the only way to overcome this. There has also been a reduction In the limits HEPPNER CAZrrT!gl!,'dqT' UJ!j8 College of Law at St Petersburg.

This Advertisement Sponsored by Oregon State Farmers Union Livestock men are reminded that water requirements increase sharply when summer comes. They are also reminded that feed and water intake are closely re lated if consumption of one is curtailed, the other also is lim ited. It has been known for many years that water intake per unit of dry matter is the same whether cattle are on full feed or on near-starvation rations. In a pinch, a livestock man can cut water consumption of his herd in half simply by halving the feed allowance. However, this mea sure should never be employed with lactating cows if it can be avoided because it would result in a decline in production that might not be overcome during the lactation period. How water i intake can vary with differences CONVERTING MORE PEOPLE TO CHEVY! This superbly fashioned Impala Convertible is making new friends for CHEVROLET faster than you can say TURBO-THRUST V8.
